If I get old
I will not give in
but if I do
remind me of this
remind me that
once I was free
once I was cool
once I was me
and if I sat down
and crossed my arms
hold me into
this song
knock me out
smash out my brains
if I take a chair
start to talk shit
if I get old
remind me of this
that night we kissed
and I really meant it
whatever happens
if we're still speaking
pick up the phone
play me this song
How I Made My Millions*note: i believe that thom just made up the lyrics on the spot... so these lyrics are probably all wrong. it doesn't matter, any interpretation is the right interpretation IMHO. the whole point behind this song is the fact that thom can sing anything and still sound emotional... anyway, here are two intepretations.
| I was stronger then I was heaven Picture you...ah... Now hold on, say when Hold on... hello (for?)Ever mine Aren't you bad? Aren't you bad? She wont sit down pitiful pitiful pitiful pitiful |
I was stronger I was better Picked you out Now don't say a word No, don't cry out Nevermind Let you out Led you back Stay on, sit down let it fall let it fall let it fall let it fall |
you stop the crowd
i cried out to break the spell
you wake and smile
i just snapped and lost control
distracted by irrelevance
the stress and the tension
the stress and the tension
i'm in a lull
there's nothing more dull
than talking, talkin about yourself
but what I meant to say
i'm sorry that i lost control
distracted by irrelevance
the stress and the tension
crawling through the keyhole
i'm in a lull
Don't forget that you are our son
Now go back to bed
We just know that you'll do well
You won't come to harm
Death to all who stand in your way
Wake my dear
In a city of the future
It is difficult to concentrate
Meet the boss, meet the wife
Everybody's happy
Everyone is made for life
In a city of the future
It is difficult to find a space
I'm too busy to see you
You're too busy to wait
But I'm okay
How are you?
Thanks for asking
Thanks for asking
I'm okay
How are you?
I hope that you are okay too...
Everyone of those days
When the sky is Californian blue
In a beautiful bombshell
I throw myself into my world
Too lazy, i've kidded myself for so long...
Pearly* *note: last line of the lyrics in Japanese PA single are listed as 'darling use me'... which somehow doesn't sound right, but if you think so...
How do you get your teeth so pearly?
dewdrop dentures
white-washed fences
she runs from the third world pearly
vanilla (i feel it crawl to me)
milkshakes (clawing back at me)
from hard rock (whatever you say)
cafes (make it go away)
that's where (I feel it crawl to me)
she got her (clawing back at me)
sweet tooth (make it go away)
for white boys (whatever you say)
she runs from the third world pearly
daddy hurts me...
daddy huuuuuuuuuurrrts me...
daddy huuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrts me...
daddy huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrts me...
Polyethylene [Parts 1 and 2] the lyrics to part 1 are all wrong. i know. sorry.
go
tears of joy, we'll scare ourselves of all that you wanna be
Just got paid and now you're going out on saturdays
If I get scared I'll just call you
(leathecallestirunsellur%andsowfont%#hlowetrailontheelowestreel+)**
right, one, two, three, four
so sell your suit and tie and come and live with me
leukemia schizophrenia polyethylene
there is no significant risk to your health
she used to be beautiful once as well
Plastic bag, middle class, polyethylene
decaffeinate, unleaded, keep all surfaces clean
If you don't believe this, sell your soul
If you don't get into it, no one will
** this is not a mistake... this is what is says in the Japanese PA lyrics... don't look at me...
